=== Non-scientific === [[File:Einstein-Oslofjord (cropped).jpg|thumb|left|Left-right: [[Heinrich Jacob Goldschmidt|Heinrich Goldschmidt]], Einstein, [[Ole Colbjørnsen]], [[Jørgen Vogt]], and Ilse Einstein at a picnic in Oslo in 1920.]] While traveling, Einstein wrote daily to his wife Elsa and adopted stepdaughters Margot and Ilse. The letters were included in the papers bequeathed to the [[Hebrew University of Jerusalem]]. Margot Einstein permitted the personal letters to be made available to the public, but requested that it not be done until twenty years after her death (she died in 1986<ref name="margot-obituary"/>). Barbara Wolff, of the Hebrew University's [[Albert Einstein Archives]], told the [[BBC]] that there are about 3,500 pages of private correspondence written between 1912 and 1955.<ref name="letters-love"/> In 1979, the [[Albert Einstein Memorial]] was unveiled outside the [[National Academy of Sciences]] building in [[Washington, D.C.]] for the Einstein centenary. It was sculpted by [[Robert Berks]]. Einstein can be seen holding a paper with three of his most important equations: for the [[photoelectric effect]], [[general relativity]] and [[mass-energy equivalence]].<ref>{{cite web| title=The Einstein Memorial| work=[[National Academy of Sciences]]| url=https://www.nasonline.org/about-the-nas/locations/the-einstein-memorial/}}</ref> Einstein's [[right of publicity]] was litigated in 2015 in a federal district court in California. Although the court initially held that the right had expired,<ref name="casetext-hebrew-university"/> that ruling was immediately appealed, and the decision was later vacated in its entirety. The underlying claims between the parties in that lawsuit were ultimately settled. The right is enforceable, and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem is the exclusive representative of that right.<ref name="pacermonitor-hebrew-university"/> [[Branded Entertainment Network|Corbis]], successor to The Roger Richman Agency, licenses the [[Trademark|use of his name and associated imagery]], as agent for the university.<ref name="einstein.biz"/> [[Mount Einstein]] in the [[Chugach Mountains]] of [[Alaska]] was named in 1955. Mount Einstein in New Zealand's [[Paparoa Range]] was named after him in 1970 by the [[Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (New Zealand)|Department of Scientific and Industrial Research]].<ref>{{LINZ|id=3694 |name=Mount Einstein |access-date=21 August 2022}}</ref> In 1999, Einstein was named [[Time (magazine)|''Time'']]'s [[Time 100: The Most Important People of the Century|Person of the Century]].<ref name="TIME">{{cite magazine| title=Albert Einstein| magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]]| last=Golden| first=Frederic| date=31 December 1999| url= https://time.com/archive/6598209/albert-einstein/}}</ref>
